Definitions

  • the present invention relates to inhibitors of 11 ⁇ -hydroxy steroid dehydrogenase type 1 ( ⁇ -HSD1), pharmaceutical compositions thereof and methods of using the same.
  • ⁇ -HSD1 11 ⁇ -hydroxy steroid dehydrogenase type 1
  • Glucocorticoids such as cortisol (hydrocortisone) are steroid hormones that regulate fat metabolism, function and distribution, and play a role in carbohydrate, protein and fat metabolism. Glucocorticoids are also known to have physiological effects on development, neurobiology, inflammation, blood pressure, metabolism and programmed cell death. Cortisol and other corticosteroids bind both the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR), which are members of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily and have been shown to mediate cortisol function in vivo. These receptors directly modulate transcription via DNA-binding zinc finger domains and transcriptional activation domains.
  • GR glucocorticoid receptor
  • MR mineralocorticoid receptor
  • glucocorticoid action was attributed to three primary factors: (1) circulating levels of glucocorticoid (driven primarily by the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis); (2) protein binding of glucocorticoids in circulation; and (3) intracellular receptor density inside target tissues.
  • HPA hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal
  • glucocorticoid function has been identified: tissue-specific pre-receptor metabolism by glucocorticoid-activating and -inactivating enzymes.
  • 11 ⁇ -hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase pre-receptor control enzymes modulate activation of GR and MR by regulation of glucocorticoid hormones.
  • 11 ⁇ -HSD1 also known as 11-beta-HSD type 1, 11betaHSD1, HSD11B1, and HSD11L
  • 11 ⁇ -HSD2 also known as 11-beta-HSD type 1, 11betaHSD1, HSD11B1, and HSD11L
  • 11 ⁇ -HSD1 is a bi-directional oxidoreductase that regenerates active cortisol from inactive 11-keto forms
  • 11 ⁇ -HSD2 is a unidirectional dehydrogenase that inactivates biologically active cortisol by converting it into cortisone.
  • 11 ⁇ -HSD1 is widely distributed in rat and human tissues; expression of the enzyme and corresponding mRNA have been detected in human liver, adipose tissue, lung, testis, bone and ciliary epithelium.
  • increased cortisol concentrations stimulate adipocyte differentiation and may play a role in promoting visceral obesity.
  • 11 ⁇ -HSD1 may regulate intraocular pressure and may contribute to glaucoma; some data suggests that inhibition of 11 ⁇ -HSD1 may cause a drop in intraocular pressure in patients with intraocular hypertension (Kotelevtsev, et al., (1997), Proc. Nat'l Acad. Sci. USA 94(26):14924-9).
  • 11 ⁇ -HSD1 catalyzes both 11-beta-dehydrogenation and the reverse 11-oxoreduction reaction
  • 11 ⁇ -HSD1 acts predominantly as a NADPH-dependent oxoreductase in intact cells and tissues, catalyzing the formation of active cortisol from inert cortisone (Low, et al., (1994) J. Mol. Endocrin. 13: 167-174).
  • 11 ⁇ -HSD2 expression is found mainly in mineralocorticoid target tissues such as kidney (cortex and medulla), placenta, sigmoid and rectal colon, salivary gland and colonic epithelial cell lines.
  • 11 ⁇ -HSD2 acts as an NAD-dependent dehydrogenase catalyzing the inactivation of cortisol to cortisone (Albiston, et al., (1994) Mol. Cell. Endocrin. 105: R11-R17), and has been shown to protect the MR from glucocorticoid excess (e.g., high levels of receptor-active cortisol) (Blum, et al., (2003) Prog. Nucl. Acid Res. Mol. Biol. 75:173-216).
  • H6PD cortisone reductase deficiency
  • PCOS polycystic ovary syndrome
  • 11 ⁇ -HSD1 contributes to increased local conversion of cortisone to cortisol in adipose tissue and hence that 11 ⁇ -HSD1 plays a role in the pathogenesis of central obesity and the appearance of the metabolic syndrome in humans (Engeli, et al., (2004) Obes. Res. 12: 9-17). Therefore, 11 ⁇ -HSD1 is a promising pharmaceutical target for the treatment of the metabolic syndrome (Masuzaki, et al., (2003) Curr. Drug Targets Immune Endocr. Metabol. Disord. 3: 255-62). Furthermore, inhibition of 11 ⁇ -HSD1 activity may prove beneficial in treating numerous glucocorticoid-related disorders.
  • 11 ⁇ -HSD1 inhibitors could be effective in combating obesity and/or other aspects of the metabolic syndrome cluster, including glucose intolerance, insulin resistance, hyperglycemia, hypertension, and/or hyperlipidemia (Kotelevstev, et al., (1997) Proc. Nat'l Acad. Sci. 94, 14924-14929; Morton, et al., (2001) J. Biol. Chem. 276, 41293-41300; Morton, et al., (2004) Diabetes 53, 931-938).
  • inhibition of 11 ⁇ -HSD1 activity may have beneficial effects on the pancreas, including the enhancement of glucose-stimulated insulin release (Billaudel & Sutter, (1979) Horm. Metab.
  • IOP intra-ocular pressure
  • Transgenic aP2-11 ⁇ -HSD1 mice exhibit high arterial blood pressure and have increased sensitivity to dietary salt. Additionally, plasma angiotensinogen levels are elevated in the transgenic mice, as are angiotensin II and aldosterone. Treatment of the mice with an angiotensin II antagonist alleviates the hypertension (Masuzaki, et al., (2003) J. Clinical Invest. 112, 83-90). This suggests that hypertension may be caused or exacerbated by 11 ⁇ -HSD1 activity. Thus, 11 ⁇ -HSD1 inhibitors may be useful for treatment of hypertension and hypertension-related cardiovascular disorders.
  • Glucocorticoids can have adverse effects on skeletal tissues, and prolonged exposure to even moderate glucocorticoid doses can result in osteoporosis (Cannalis, (1996) J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 81, 3441-3447).
  • 11 ⁇ -HSD1 has been shown to be present in cultures of human primary osteoblasts as well as cells from adult bone (Cooper, et al., (2000) Bone 27: 375-381), and the 11 ⁇ -HSD1 inhibitor carbenoxolone has been shown to attenuate the negative effects of glucocorticoids on bone nodule formation (Bellows, et al., (1998) Bone 23: 119-125).
  • inhibition of 11 ⁇ -HSD1 is predicted to decrease the local glucocorticoid concentration within osteoblasts and osteoclasts, thereby producing beneficial effects in various forms of bone disease, including osteoporosis.
